Add Westbrook for 8-36. :lol:


We should not be laughing at any other team tbh. We just had the biggest choke in NBA history.

Thibs is a jerk. We could have been resting and preparing for round two, but his idiocy put us in this predicament.

We had the bird in hand...

The team won game 1 with Foster, they can do it again. Sure, we are all expecting Philly to get the calls so the NBA gets a game 7, but this team is tough and resilient. Our players have played better overall this series than theirs, so if they can just avoid Maxey going absolutely nuts, they can win this. Worst case, game 7 is at home.

BBALLER4FR wrote:What's being lost in this whole conversation is that both the Knicks/6ers series, and the Bucks/Pacers series sit at 3-2. We should be sitting and waiting for that dogfight to play out in that other series. While we are playing a gimpy Embiid team filled with shiddy role players and we are playing a 7 man rotation with guys playing 40+ minutes, the Bucks could win tomorrow and both Dame and Giannis have been rested. If we manage to emerge victorious (hopefullly in 6, NOT 7), we are going to have to play a team of Middleton (BALLIN!!!), Lopez (Tough big to cover), Beverly (Fukkin PEST!!!), Portis off the bench....and a rested pair of Dame and Giannis.....with this dog tired team. We don't do ourselves any favors. We continuously get down early, we muster up scrappy late runs, but we are out talented, unrested AND without a cavalry to spell the wounded. Let's hope we only lost a toe when we shot ourselves in the foot.


Well, Pacers aren’t losing that series. So don’t think we need to be worried about Giannis and Dame.

Just get this win, we won in Philly just a few days ago. A LOT had to go their way those last 30 seconds for them to get it into OT.

DDV is overdue for a big a game. Hopefully the hamster wheel in Thibs brain turns a bit faster this game and we can get some adjustments when they’re needed and not 8 minutes late

1) Start the usual guys and monitor DDV & iHart closely
2) If they're getting cooked again, bring in McBride & Precious straight away to lock things down
3) Even if Mitch is the primary defender on Embiid, go to Precious in the final 6 minutes of the 4th with OG on Embiid
4) Trap Maxey on the pick & roll more often!
5) Continue to put Embiid in the pick & roll and keep attacking him to tire him out (again)

The only thing we’re losing tonight is the ability to close out at MSG. Stop putting out that shook energy, LFG!!!

-same starting 5
-short leash
-get Mitch on Embiid so you can focus on blitzing/doubling Maxey
-Hit your damn Free Throws
-get Precious in the game down the stretch alongside iHart
-WIN

Return to New York Knicks
